Enjoy!The show starts with children writing letters to Santa Claus. Santa suddenly appears and listens to the children's usual requests. It is only Brian that has no idea what he wants until Santa discovers that Brian lacks talent and would really love some. Thus begins the quest to see if Brian's got talent!Brian meets Doc who is a Merlin-type character able to whisk us through time and space if required. The first talent Brian needs is the ability to tell jokes. So, we visit the first SET PIECE: the Cracker factory - modelling hats, demonstrating the wonderful free toys, telling the worst jokes ever and adding a few Christmas songs to get us in the mood.Brian is then sent before the judges (Simon, Piers and Amanda) but he is still found lacking. The judges again feel that there is something lacking and that it is dancing! CLUELESS (hardly Flawless!) are not the best dancers in the world and so, with Stavros and Flatley as their mentors, we arrive at SET PIECE 2 and a possible dance extravaganza (Strictly Come Thriller?)The judges still cannot find Brian's talent and, through a chance meeting with Shrek, the story lurches on to to the swamp and meet Fiona and Puss. SET PIECE 3 takes us through the Storyland routines to try and inspire Brian. Once again he is sent before the judges who feel the ability to do a speciality act would improve his talents. What can be cooked up? Well, Sweet, sour, sauce and Jammy Oliver try but fail as do "Clueless" . The Judges suggest he should find that special talent - finger knitting, chocolate eating, talking parrot, dog act etc. A final SET PIECE offers ideas for special talent (Fame / Circus theme). When Santa reappears Brian seems to have no talent in singing, dancing, joke telling etc. But he has acquired many grateful friends along the way. And that really is a talent!

The book is a diary of a physician/father over 25 years of family life and his practice of medicine. The author kept a journal and although this journal reflects his mood and attitude at the time, it is a description about experiences, occurrences and important decisions. These transitions and tides are chronicled whether it be family life, building a practice, or operating a health system. The result is a journal that describes seemingly minor events that directed the author and his family in certain directions and as a result, this story. "Tides and Transitions" describes those people, events, and the stories that helped develop, mature, and challenge the family and medical practice. It is bits and pieces of the life of a young then middle aged physician and father.

In Nothing Like a Dame, theater journalist Eddie Shapiro opens a jewelry box full of glittering surprises, through in-depth conversations with twenty leading women of Broadway. He carefully selected Tony Award-winning stars who have spent the majority of their careers in theater, leaving aside those who have moved on or occasionally drop back in. The women he interviewed spent endless hours with him, discussing their careers, offering insights into the iconic shows, changes on Broadway over the last century, and the art (and thrill) of taking the stage night after night. Chita Rivera describes the experience of starring in musicals in each of the last seven decades; Audra McDonald gives her thoughts on the work that went into the five Tony Awards she won before turning forty-one; and Carol Channing reflects on how she has revisited the same starring role generation after generation, and its effects on her career. Here too is Sutton Foster, who contemplates her breakout success in an age when stars working predominately in theater are increasingly rare. Each of these conversations is guided by Shapiro's expert knowledge of these women's careers, Broadway lore, and the details of famous (and infamous) musicals. He also includes dozens of photographs of these players in their best-known roles. This fascinating collection reveals the artistic genius and human experience of the women who have made Broadway musicals more popular than ever-a must for anyone who loves the theater.

Before Bob Marley brought reggae to the world, before Jimmy Cliff and Peter Tosh, before thousands of musicians played a Jamaican rhythm, there were the men and women who created ska music, a blend of jazz, American rhythm and blues, and the indigenous music of the Caribbean. This book tells the story of ska music and its development from Jamaica to England, where the music took on a distinctively different tone, and finally to the rest of the world. Through the words of legendary artists, gleaned from more than a decade of interviews, the story of ska music is finally told by those who were there.
